Vestmark, a leading provider of portfolio management software and services, has announced the launch of its Model Trading Service (MTS): model management, trading, rebalancing and account administration outsourcing for Broker/Dealers, RIAs, Banks and their advisors. This new outsourced model management, trading and rebalancing service offers a turnkey solution to make Broke/Dealer firms, RIAs and Banks more efficient.

Resulting productivity gains generate hard-dollar savings and allow firms to re-deploy resources toward revenue-producing activities. According to Cerulli Associates, “Relying on models and outsourcing model portfolios makes it easier for advisors to streamline their practices and emphasize client management and business development.”

Offered through Vestmark Advisory Solutions, (VAS), a wholly-owned, RIA subsidiary of Vestmark Inc., the MTS drives productivity and efficiency of trading home office-created, third-party and advisor-defined models, as either single sleeve accounts (SMAs) as well as multi-sleeve, unified managed accounts (UMAs). This service handles the burden of maintaining client portfolios in line with their respective investment models and allocation targets set by the advisor.

SOPHISTICATED ACCOUNT IMPLEMENTATION W/O TRADITIONAL OVERHEAD

By leveraging the VestmarkONE Portfolio Management platform and its flexible “model building block” technology, the Vestmark MTS provides sophisticated account implementation without the overhead associated with in-house trading, rebalancing, tax-management and ongoing account administration.

“Our goal is to enable wealth management firms and their advisors to streamline administrative processes to free up more time to spend with their clients and on growing their businesses. We are extending our suite of award-winning outsourced services with the addition of MTS,” said John Lunny, CEO of Vestmark. “Our solutions are designed to help wealth management firms and asset managers to stay ahead of shifting market dynamics and we are excited to help them succeed.”
